Hey guys

My car got egged either late last night or very early in the morning, it was parked on a driveway with the gates closed too! Damn bastards!!

Anyone around the Canley Vale, Canley Heights area get done too?

Trying to figure out around what time it happened, so I can camp those little bastards with a baseball bat :)

Anyone that lives near here that got done too, is welcomed to join me lol.

From what I was told eggs can wreck the paintwork if left on long enough, roughly how long does it need to be on for that to happen?

ive had my car egged a few times when i leave my car in Menai overnight, they usually do the whole street so i know its not a personal attack atleast....

On the R33 ive had the car egged on friday night or early saturday morning, and one time i didn't get to my car untill sunday evening, washed it off with a hose and no issues and this was in summer because i remember it was warm weather. The egg was baked on the car and it came off with plain water, when i got home i washed it wth soap but there was no marks.

I personally think its a myth that eggs can destroy your paint work in a resonably short time (like a few days) despite what wiki-answers says lol.

If you really wanna fk your paint how about paint thinner or brake fluid???

and that wiki answers guy is alittle stupid, pouring boiling water would denature the eggs protiens faster and more agressively and "IF" an egg was to damage the pint work the last thing I would do is pour boiling water onto it which would be likely to speed up the chemical reaction....

My 2cents, and use common sense

Cold water washed it off fine though it took awhile trying to scrape the egg yolk off.

There was a small chip on the driver side door paint, but I don't remember if it was there before or not lol.

Definitely learnt my lesson for being lazy and not parking it in the garage :)

where were these guys when i needed breakfast this morning??

I'll be sure to let you know if i find out :ermm:

One of my parents cars had damage to the paint from egg, but that's cause it was on there for up to a week in the sun, we were on holidays when it was done. However if you get it off in the next day or two I've never had a problem. Egg shells on the other are real pain. My mates car got egged one night in a quiet residential street and you can see where the eggs hit cause there's tiny little chips down to the metal in the shape of the egg.

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
